The Supreme Court turned down the Defence Ministry’s request to allow prosecution under the Pakistan Army Act (PAA) 1952 of a serving military officer accused of having been involved in the enforced disappearance of one Tasif Ali.
A bench of two judges headed by Justice Nasir-ul-Mulk ordered the Punjab police to continue its investigation against accused Major Mohammad Ali Ahsan.
The bench had taken up an application of Abida Malik w/o Tasif Ali alias Danish. Abida alleged that MI officer Ali Ahsan, commonly known as Maj Haider, was behind the disappearance of her husband.
